Port Codeplug Tytera (TYT) MD-380 to CS-700

The Tytera (TYT) MD-380 software is close to the CS-700 software, except it will not read the CS-700 codeplug, and vice versa.  You can hex edit it, and make it work. When the actual radio shows up, I'll let you know.

The software is NOT identical. They are close, and based on the same code, but they are not identical.  The MD380 has features that the CS700 does not, so the software is different.

The scan on the MD380 is a bit slow, but the nuisance delete does work. And it scan multiple channels.

But if you're looking for scanner speed, you'll be disappointed. The receiver on the MD380 is quit good.

Plug radio into the computer and turn it off.
The executable upgrade utility is also in the file called Upgrade.exe. Double click that, Click on open update file on second row of buttons, Choose the MD-380-D2.26.bin and click open.

Then press and hold the top two buttons of your radio and turn it on. Let go, the LED will start to blink.

Click the 3rd Button on the second row " Download Update File" and the file will start to upload .

Wait long enough at 70% it might seem to stall. Just wait

DO NOT NAVIGATE Away . When process is complete, the radio will reboot and you will done. 

One thing I did notice was my radio did not "reboot".  When the process was complete according to the computer screen, I turned the radio off, unplugged the cable, and turned the radio back on.  

IF IT FAILS 1/2 WAY THROUGH DO NOT PANIC, JUST REDO THE STEPS ABOVE UNTIL IT SUCCEEDS.

I ended up having to do it 3 times
